ABSTRACT:
A buoyancy compensating back pack assembly that permits a scuba diver wearing the assembly, together with a tank of pressurized air and associated breathing apparatus to attain and maintain a desired buoyancy while descending or ascending in the water, and regardless of his depth. The assembly permits a diver to achieve the above objectives without the use of a weight belt or an inflatable air vest. After the diving operation is completed, the assembly may be so arranged that such gear as fins, knife, and the like, can be disposed within the confines thereof for carrying purposes. During the diving operation one or more watertight pockets forming a part of the assembly may have dry wearing apparel stored therein for use after the diving operation is completed.
